I hope i can do a summary for me and for you. It is according to the handout from the portals. Freemind is still in the process, on the way figuring out)
Hydrocolloid- polysaccharide with substituent which detemine the properties of hydrocolloid
Function of hydrocolloid :
-thickening agent
-gelling/texturizing agent
-stabilization of emulsion
-particles suspension
-control of crystalisation
-encapsulation: capsule flavor
-film formation
There are only non-ionic or ionic food gums.(how about non-food gums?)
Cationic food gums are toxic.
DS determine the speed of hydration.
>DS, hydrate faster.
DP determine the speed of hydration&viscosity
>DP, viscosity higher, hydrate slower.
Gum properties affected by
-MW
-monosaccharide composition (where polysaccharide made from)
-substituent(number, type, how they distribute)
